a story about a guy that was banned from an airplane because he was wearing a “George W. Bush is world’s #1 terrorist” t-shirt. [Where is the freedom of forking speech? Governments like to have total control over your t-shirt and words written on them , next step is on what you watch/hear and what you think]

[samsung dvd drives are defective by design - one more hardware manufacturer to avoid - you know i will vote with my money and include them on the wall of shame] I decided to try displaying a DVD on the box instead of using the DVD player. This is when I discovered that my computer's new DVD drive is defective.

"Let's face it, we're not changing the world. We're building a product that helps people buy more crap - and watch porn." Yah right ... and when the goverment is watching over my shoulder (using DRM) how can i watch p0rn safely ? seagate will build DRM enabled drives that will not let you download and watch all the good video pr0n that you find on p2p networks or various russian sites " the capability for one's hard drive to overrule the operating system -- and, with it, the authority of the user or administrator with regard to what files can be written, where, and when -- is not necessarily something consumers automatically view as a "feature."" ps: In the end i will buy only samsung, wd drives from now on
